Two bull elks spar in Rocky Mountain National Park. The prob­lem with this loca­tion is that the road is ele­vated above the val­ley that the elk were in. There are some places in the park where this is not the case, but the elk aren’t there as fre­quently. You have a good view, but when you take a tele­photo shot from that angle, you don’t get much of the hori­zon. instead you get the ground, as you can see in a lot of my other elk photos.

This makes them unsuit­able for my port­fo­lio, prob­a­bly. I’ll just have to keep going back until I can get the shots I want. I guess gas is pretty cheap right now at least!
